If, despite the installed application, the T12 file does not start in the At Home application, you must create a file association. The association can be created using the drop-down list available by right-clicking on the file and selecting Properties.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the T12 file
Of course, it may happen that despite the above steps, the file still does not work. The most common file problems are:
Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the T12 file. The only repair option is to download the file again.
The computer may have fallen victim to a computer virus or hacker. A quick virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should clear up any doubts. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file T12 or the program directory. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover T12 files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the T12 file. These problems are known and are often very easy to fix using the software developers's website.
There can be many reasons for this. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular T12 file corruption. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting H&R Block, but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted T12 files can be used by the device on which they were encrypted, on any other device it is required to have the appropriate cryptographic key and decrypt the file before its recovery.
The operating system protects files in some locations (e.g. the root of the system partition) against unauthorized access. While there is usually no problem reading such a file, it may not be possible to save it. Copying the T12 file to another location will fix the problem.
This problem usually affects more complex files. In this case, the T12 file is blocked by the first application to open it. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file T12 to close. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the T12 file for a certain period of time. If this does not work either, restart the device.
